Brago is an extremely silly card. Resets all the artifact mana, resets all the planeswalkers for double use, and has random synergies with cards like Predator, Flagship for double kills. Another 4 mana flier (that gets over Moat) that blinks permanents to join Restoration Angel and Galepowder Mage. The card was tailor made for this deck.
Brago is also another card that can blink Ancestral Knowledge, which is key in getting the deck get to that very fun "Super Late Game Scenario" that I describe in the OP.
I've also finally given into Kozilek and dropped Decree of Justice as my secondary win condition. Decree is good is theory and still pretty good in practice, but considering that you're cycling it 90% of the time, it defeated the purpose of adding a 2nd x-spell that created an army of angels to fly over Moat. Kozilek has some anti-synergies with the deck: it doesn't get over Moat, his ability isn't ETB to combo with blink, and with cards like Terminus, I might not even get to shuffle my graveyard into my library. That being said, he does have the ability to shuffle my graveyard (to go along with Elixir of Immortality and Timetwister), the blink effects in the deck can steal him back from a control magic effect or Bribery, and he's just really good at digging for more cards, including more miracles.
Bottom line: Kozilek is just too good to pass up.
The only question now is if I want to add Ulamog as well. For now, I think I'll hold on Ulamog. I think drawing cards is more important than destroying a permanent at sorcery speed. But definitely something to think about.
-1 Stonecloaker
-1 Decree of Justice
+1 Brago, King Eternal
